Manchester United fans took to social media to celebrate the transfer ban imposed by FIFA on Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.
David de Gea’s desire to join Real Madrid is no secret as faulty paperwork prevented the Spaniard from completing the transfer last summer. While De Gea subsequently signed a 4 year contract at Manchester United, the goalkeeper refused to rule out the possibility of a release clause in his contract, sparking suggestions regarding a move to Real Madrid in the near future.
However, FIFA’s transfer ban prohibits the two clubs from Madrid from signing new players for two consecutive transfer windows, hence preventing David de Gea’s departure from Manchester United. Here are the best tweets from the evening as United fans expressed their delight in the light of the ban imposed on Los Blancos.
The Real Madrid transfer ban is great news for #MUFC as De Gea cannot join them for the next two transfer windows

While some spoke about other pressing concerns.
Will be interesting to see how Real Madrid’s transfer ban will affect De Gea, will he try and force a move in this window or wait for 2017? — Sam Leveridge (@samleveridge) January 14, 2016
